Replacing the TPS and Fixing Coil Error Code on a 2003 Mercury Mountaineer, V8 4.6 Engine.
We bought the Mountaineer 2 weeks ago to replace the wrecked Jeep Grand Cherokee. After a couple of days the Service Engine Soon light came on. Fair chance the seller cleared the codes before selling it.
So, ordered a $20 OBDII Code Reader from Amazon and got the following codes:
P1120 : Throttle Position Sensor Out of Range
P0355: Ignition Coil “E” Primary/Secondary Circuit
Coil E is for Cylinder 5, or the drivers side most front one.
Parts were ordered, full list below and I decided to take video of the install.
The set of Coils and Plugs from Walmart did not fit properly and will be returned. I did discover a loose connector on Coil E and got the debris out so it now snaps solidly in place. Hopefully that fixes the P0355 error.
The TPS replacement was completed, but I'm pretty sure I got a cheap knockoff and not a real Dephi part from Amazon.
